Localized Temperature Engineering Enables Writing of Heterostructures in Glass for Polarized Photoluminescence of Perovskites.

Metal halide perovskite (MHP) structures that exhibit polarized photoluminescence (PL) have attracted significant interest in fabricating light field regulation elements for display, imaging, and information storage applications. We report a three-dimensional direct lithography of heterostructures for controllable polarized PL inside glass by laser-induced localized temperature engineering. The heterostructures consisted of oriented periodic structures (OPSs) and MHP nanocrystals, and the mechanism for hierarchical distribution of heterostructures was illustrated. The patterning of heterostructures for manipulable polarized PL can be used for information encryption, wave-plate, and polarized micro-LEDs.
